Two related decisions by the Texas Supreme Court and now  U.S. District Judge Andrew Hanen have rejected the effort to toss out 127,000 ballots cast at drive thru pollings sites in Harris County.

This is from an all Republican Supreme Court and a federal Judge who was appointed by George W. Bush.

Judge Hanen said the GOP activist and candidates who filed the lawsuit had no legal standing and they waited too long to bring the suit. Judge Hanen said the plaintiffs did not show they would be harmed if the drive-thru ballots are counted. Judge Hanen asked why the GOP activist and three Republican candidates did not file this lawsuit sooner.
